Putting boots on the ground will cause WW3. But if thats the cost of freedom and stability, then it’s a price we need to be willing to pay.

Or maybe the mere fact that you feel that way is more proof of my point, and why we need to fix the communication. I don’t think the left and right are actually that far apart, but identity politics is a wedge movement meant to divide.

If instead we speak about actual policy, and changes we want to se, we may get more traction working together.

Also, left and right both support both oligarchy and plutocracy.

The right sets the conditions for all business to grow which results in people getting rich leaving everyone else behind to fend for themselves. The left set the conditions to decide where exorbitant about of tax dollars go which has proven time and time again to result in nepotism and gross financial mismanagement. See how those broad strokes are simply inflammatory claims?

Orwells Politics and the English Language is a must read on exactly why this kind of dialogue is exactly what they want us to be having.

Violence is not the answer though. Not yet. Uncoordinated violence would just result in thousands dead and no change. Watch Les Misérables again if you doubt me.

To be clear, authoritarianism is rampant on both sides of the aisle. The gross resistance to even basic right wing ideology is proof of that (which to be clear I’m not calling Trump basic right wing). Hell the fact you’re calling for violence is more proof.

Left and right, people want to force others to believe what they believe period. If you don’t agree you get attacked.

We need to stop “fighting” each other, and start listening to each other. Then, instead of fighting amongst ourselves, we can unite against the common threat. Oligarchy, and plutocracy.

This is actually how it works in some places in Canada. It’s a very effective system.
